DR LEE OI WAH PEG. PERUBATAN UD54 Dengue Virus Causes dengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever Is an arbovirus Transmitted by mosquitoes Composed of single-stranded RNA Has 4 serotypes (DEN-1, 2, 3, 4)
Dengue Viruses Each serotype provides specific lifetime immunity, and short-term cross-immunity All serotypes can cause severe and fatal disease Genetic variation within serotypes Some genetic variants within each serotype appear to be more virulent or have greater epidemic potential 4 1

Infected Person Susceptible Person Mosquito Bite Infected Mosquito Infected Mosquito Bites next person Becomes Sick Mosquito Bite Infected Mosquito 3 14 days later Remains viremic 2 to 10 Days 8 12 DAYS Manifestations of the dengue syndrome Asymptomatic Undifferentiated fever No h'rage Unusual hemorrhage Dengue Fever DHF I & II DSS Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (plasma leakage) Symptomatic Dengue virus Infection Fever lasting 2-7 days, occasionally biphasic
Bleeding tendencies
Thrombocytopenia (100,000/mm3 or less)
Evidence of plasma leakage: Haemoconcentration (20% above baseline) A drop in haematocrit following fluid replacement Pleural effusion, ascites (not obvious in early stage of critical phase), circulatory disturbances.
All the above 4 criteria for DHF, plus evidence of circulatory failure:
rapid and weak pulse narrow pulse pressure less than 20mmHg or hypotension for age cold clammy skin and restlessness
WHO grading of DHF/DSS (WHO 1997)
Grade 1 In the presence of haemoconcentration, fever and symptoms, a positive TT Grade 2 spontaneous bleeding in addition to the manifestation from Grade 2 Grade 3* circulatory failure, pulse pressure less than 20 mmHg but systolic pressure normal Grade 4* profound shock, hypotension or unrecordable blood pressure.
Simplification: Grade 1 & 2: Non-shock DHF Grade 3: COMPENSATED shock Grade 4: DECOMPENSATED shock # Dengue Case Classification 13 Dengue Perak 5/2010 PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF DENGUE INFECTION
Deferversence 24-48 hours
Recognition of onset of reabsorption phase is also important because i.v fluid regime needs to be progressively reduced/ discontinued at this stage. Thrombocytopenia
120 110 100 90 80 70 60 Blood pressure, pulse pressure, heart rate in hypovolemic shock Time LCS Lum Compensated shock Decompensated shock First sign of shock is tachycardia Followed by increasing diastolic BP Drop is systolic BP is relatively late event PR DIAGNOSIS OF DF OR DHF Important points to evaluate: History: date of onset of fever/ illness nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhoea bleeding tendency change in mental state/seizure/dizziness urine output (frequency, volume and time of last voiding) other important relevant histories: family or neighbourhood history of dengue jungle trekking and swimming in waterfall (consider leptospirosis, typhus, malaria) travelling recent unprotected sexual or drug use behaviour (consider acute HIV seroconversion illness) co-morbidities (consider sepsis in patients with diabetes mellitus) Physical examination:
Assess mental state and GCS score Assess haemodynamic status Cold/ warm extremities Capillary filling time (normal < 2 seconds); Pulse rate and Pulse volume Blood pressure and Pulse pressure Look out for tachypnoea/ acidotic breathing/ pleural effusion Check for abdominal tenderness/ hepatomegaly/ ascites Examine for bleeding manifestation Tourniquet test (repeat if previously negative or if there is no bleeding manifestation) Investigations:
FBC & HCT Renal and liver function tests INR & APTT Dengue serology BFMP Other relevent tests After clinical assessment 1. Day.fever 2. Temp chart Febrile phase / Critical phase Hours of defervescence 3. Alarm signals Yes/No Abdominal pain and vomiting / Restlessness / Cold and clammy extrimities / Altered conscious level / A sudden change from fever to hypothermia 4. Bleeding tendency Yes/No 5. Evidence of plasma leakage Yes/No Pleural effusion / Ascites Hemodynamic instability - INCLUDING TACHYCARDIA (PR>90) Increase in HCT
Diagnosis : Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever D6 illness Deferversence 12 hours With right pleural effusion and ascites Clinically no alarming signs / bleeding
